Formatting your Memory Card
Formatting the memory card maximizes the free space on the memory card and optimizes the speed of reading
and writing files from/onto the memory card.
Warning:
Formatting will erase ALL data on the memory card. Note that your ROUTE 66 product can always be restored
on your memory card using the CD(s), but you may want to backup other data (e.g., photographs or MP3s)
that you have stored on the memory card.
1. Insert your memory card into the memory card reader & writer.
2. Connect your memory card reader & writer to a USB port of your PC.
3. Open (double-click) My Computer on your PC. The corresponding memory card appears in the
Devices with Removable Storage section as “Removable Disk”. Make sure this is the correct
memory card (e.g., disconnect the memory card reader & writer and verify that the disk disappears
from the list; next, reconnect your memory card reader & writer).
4. Click on the right button of the mouse on the identified Removable Disk and choose "Format..." Select
“FAT” (not “FAT32”) under "File system" and click Start. Take good notice of the contents of the
warning message. If you agree, click OK. The memory card will be formatted, erasing ALL data on it!
5. The “Format Complete” dialog appears after 10 seconds. Click OK, then click Close.
